Chemistry

Do your students always understand the underlying chemical reasoning behind the problems they are solving? 

McMurry/Fay presents chemical concepts with quantitative discussions to bring in to sharp focus the connection between chemical reasoning and math.  Three types of problems are designed to help students apply solid chemical reasoning to solving problems. 

• In-chapter “Worked Key Concept” examples give students their first exposure to working through problems on a conceptual level.
• In chapter “Key Concept” problems give students an immediate opportunity to solve problems that test their understanding of chemical concepts.
• End-of-chapter “Understanding Key Concept” problems give students an opportunity to test that they understand all of the major concepts in the chapter before moving on to the multi-concept problems that require this understanding.

How adept are your students at seeing the connections between the various topics presented in general chemistry?

Most topics in general chemistry are not isolated ideas, but pieces of a greater body of knowledge that are interconnected.  McMurry/Fay helps students build a comprehensive understanding of chemistry through topic references.   

Topic Connections that begin with “Remember…” explain how individual topics are related, and give sufficient information so students either don’t have to “flip back”, or know when they should.

How proficient are your students at pulling together the various modes of information they encounter in a text (the words, the graphics, and the numeric data)?

McMurry/Fay’s design uniquely integrates explanatory narrative with key principles by connecting the various modes of information, words, numbers, and graphics.     

• A bolded statement of principle is the first step in connecting the text with the graphic.
• “Text-Graphic Integration Objects” combine expository text with illustrations and graphs as a single presentation of information.  Students do not need to search for a graphic described in the text, or for the text that fully explains a graphic.  In addition to the integration, these objects appear precisely where they fit within the overall presentation. 
• Messages and labels are written directly onto the graphic and serve as an effective and economical way to explain the data.
• Assimilating prior concepts is a stepping stone to multi-concept exam problems.

How do your students use the textbook?

The new layout and design of McMurry/Fay is built in response to conversations with students about their study habits and use of science textbooks.  McMurry/Fay maps to students’ behavior, rather than challenges it.

• Students may not read the text like a novel, but often need to reference information easily and in a meaningful way.  . 
  • Highlighted key principles and information integration allow easy access to sections that show meaning more immediately when a topic is being referenced.  This is particularly important when students need a refresher while in the middle of solving a problem.
• Students need to see how topics in chemistry are related, but often fail to flip back when a section reference is given. 
  • Topic Connections form the relationship between topics in a meaningful way so students know when they need to go back, and when they can keep moving forward.

• Students get frustrated searching for a graphic that relates to the narrative, they get discouraged if the page is too dense, and they can recall information better if the page is easier to visualize.

“Text-Graphic Integration Objects” — combines text with illustrations to direct students to the important points in both.

“Remember…” Topic Connections — references important topics previously covered.

Interludes: expanded current interludes and included six new Interludes on topics of current interests:

Chapter 4 - Green Chemistry

Chapter 5 - Compact Fluorescent Lights: Saving energy through Atomic Line Spectra

Chapter 8 - Biofuels

Chapter 10 - Ionic Liquids

Chapter 12 - Enzyme Kinetics

Chapter 21 – Nanotechnology

Section 5.8 - Added a brief description of the Bohr model for the hydrogen atom and deleted discussion of black body radiation.

Section 5.8 - The signs of orbital wave functions have been more clearly represented by different colors (red and blue) rather than by light and dark, as in 4e. This convention has been followed throughout the book and facilitates visualization of chemical bonding.

Section 6.7 - The discussion of lattice energies now occupies a separate section.

Section 6.8 - The section on the octet rule  now precedes the descriptive chemistry of the elements of groups 1A-IIIA, VIIA, and VIIIA. Throughout Chapter 6 we have indicated that octet configurations are attained in chemical reactions; they are generally not obtained for isolated ions.

Section 7.12 - Moved sp3d and sp3d2 hybridization to Chapter 20. Quantum mechanical calculations have shown that the d orbitals do not make a significant contribution to bonding in main-group compounds.

Chapter 8 - From the outset we've been careful to indicate that energy is only one factor determining stability.

Sections 8.13, 8.14 - Entropy is discussed in terms of molecular randomness. "Disorder" has been deleted.

Sections 12.9, 12.10 - Section 12.9 of 4e, Rate Laws and Reaction Mechanisms has been divided into two sections: 12.9 Rate Laws for Elementary Reactions and 12.10 Rate Laws for Overall Reactions. Section 12.10 contains a new subsection on multi-step reactions with an initial fast step.

Chapter 12 - This chapter contains two new Worked Examples (12.4 and 12.11) as well as quite a few new problems.

Section 13.4 - Revised the explanation of why pure solids and pure liquids are omitted from the equilibrium equation to take account of their standard states.

Section 14.11 - Added Worked Example 14.12 has to show how to do equilibrium calculations for sulfuric acid, a diprotic acid with a very large Ka1.

Section 14.13 - This section introduces pKb.

Section 15.9 - The qualitative features of polyprotic acid-strong base titrations are presented first, and the calculations are described in a subsequent, separate subsection so that instructors can easily omit the calculations if they wish to do so.

Chapter 16 - Throughout this chapter entropy has been discussed in terms of molecular randomness, and the language of "disorder" has been deleted, except in connection with disordered crystals. In turn, randomness is explained in terms of probability and is illustrated by a newly added calculation of the entropy change that occurs on the expansion of n moles of an ideal gas at constant temperature.

Section 17.9 - Added new material on nickel-metal hydride, lithium, and lithium-ion batteries and deleted the material on mercury batteries.

Section 17.10 - Updated and expanded the material on fuel cells and put it into a separate section.

Chapter 18 - added some E zero values to chemical equations since this chapter now follows electrochemistry.

Section 18.10 - Added a paragraph on superoxide ion in the human body.

Section 18.13 - Added a paragraph on water on Mars.

Section 19.2 - Removed mention of use of d orbitals in bonding for main-group compounds. Explained the ability of larger atoms to bond to more than four nearest neighbors in terms of atom sizes.

Section 19.6 - Added a paragraph on supercritical carbon dioxide.

Section 19.14 - Added a paragraph on perchlorate ion in the environment.

Section 21.6 - Added this new section on semiconductor applications, which discusses diodes, LEDs, diode lasers, photovoltaic (solar) cells, and transistors.

MasteringChemistry^TM is not only an online homework system that tracks multiple parts of a single problem, it is also a tutoring system relying on the Socratic method of presenting students with simpler sub-questions to help guide them back on the right track. Furthermore, the system responds to common wrong answers with specific feedback, rather than one generic ?catch-all? response. The tutorial content is tested by thousands of students. During testing, we capture all student answer submissions and write/rewrite hints and feedback for their most common actual wrong answers. As a result, MasteringChemistry addresses not just where Chemistry instructors expect students to go wrong, but where they actually do go wrong. Our standard is that the tutorials guide at least 85% of students to the final, correct answer. We modify the hints and feedback until we achieve that goal, and we revisit the students? results regularly to ensure that we maintain it.

  For two-semester or three-quarter courses in General Chemistry.

   

   

  McMurry/Fay helps students and professors get to the heart of chemistry more effectively and helps students see the connections to chemistry more clearly.

   

   

  McMurry/Fay is known for its smart and precise presentation that blends the quantitative and visual aspects of General Chemistry.  The 5th edition of McMurry/Fay builds on this foundation making the right connections in general chemistry topically, visually, and quantitatively.  Chemistry is mastered when students make the right connections in three key areas; topics that are related, conceptual reasoning with quantitative work, and the different modes of communicating information.  McMurry/Fay breaks through the boundaries traditionally imposed by textbooks that have historically made it difficult for students to make these connections on their own.  Topic Connections, Conceptual and Quantitative parallel presentation, and Text-Graphic Integration Objects make these critical connections clear and visible, so students see the chemistry the first time.  When you see the connections, you see the chemistry.

   

  Students don’t use textbooks exactly the same way they used them in the past.  The new layout of MF5 was designed to map to the way students seek and process information, and is based on conversations with students about the way they study.

  For two-semester or three-quarter courses in General Chemistry.

   

  Tro provides students the support they need early so they can tackle challenging topics later. He does this by building on what students already know.

   

  The author’s goal in writing this book is to deliver the depth of coverage faculty want with the accessibility and clarity that students need for success.  Nivaldo J. Tro’s Chemistry: A Molecular Approach explains difficult chemical concepts in a concise and clear student-centered manner while also providing faculty with the flexibility to go more deeply into many key, often neglected topics, such as electron diffraction, molecular orbital theory, and free-energy changes under non-standard conditions.  Chemistry is presented visually throughmulti-level images (macroscopic, molecular and symbolic representations), which helps students see the connections among the formulas (symbolic), the world around them (macroscopic), and the atoms and molecules that make up the world (molecular).  Every aspect of this book focuses students on recognizing that the behavior of matter is based on the behavior of atoms and molecules.
